You are using knitting yarn for cross-stitching?  Do you have to use special canvas?

The link to t ...

Im using worsted weight yarn. The canvas is actually crochet, a simple sc dc sequence.
No cross stitching, the flowers are all made separately and sewn on.

You are correct about the link, it doesnt go to the right thread and I cant locate it. It may have been removed. If so, Ill upload it.

Yup, all the pieces have to be sewn onto the base blanket.

Here I am at Week 2.

I changed my mind about the rose that is in the pattern and made some rosettes in stead. Didnt like the loop daisy or the wild flower, so I made a Chrysanthemum and some daffodils (Pattern HERE). :)

My plan is to add a sunflower on the upper left and a daisy below it, then add the pansies, grass and bugs from the pattern.

I plan to post one  PDF wilth all the flowers I changed so anyone itnersted doesnt have to hunt them down individually.

Should have it all laid out and ready for sweing next weekend.

Week 2
